France Holds Free Hand in Caracas Venezuelan Talks
Washington grants France leeway in pursuing its plan for Venezuela with assurances that U S rights will not be violated. M Jusserand and M Taigny will discuss the matter in New York after cryptic dispatches and a Caracas note. France may act soon while Castro’s forces, trained and armed with French rifles, could lead to a limited war with heavy costs. American interests likely remain unchanged and U S approval could shape Castro’s stance.
